2 Overview

The configurable VS-1200-S family of products increases network visibility and leverages yourinvestment in network analyzers, probes, and security equipment by allowing you to simultaneouslymonitor as many supported configurable ports as you may need to fit your peripheral network tools.Greater visibility accelerates problem resolution, reduces downtime and increases enterpriseproductivity.

The configurable family of products are compatible with all vendor hardware and can be controlledby our Command Line Interface (CLI) software, which will allow you to control all of yourconfigurable family of products through a single interface regardless of what network appliances youchoose to deploy.

2.1 VS-1200-S Series Summary

The configurable VERSAstream Data Access Switch can combine data from multiple Ethernetnetwork segments into one data stream. A single Gigabit device/tool, such as an intrusion detectionsystem, protocol analyzer, or network probe can receive the aggregated data with just one networkinterface card (NIC).

The configurable product can also have additional input/output ports or Any-to-Any ports, somultiple Gigabit devices can receive the same data stream. This allows different network tools tocollect data from the same network segments at the same time, eliminating contention for access tothe network. Also, these ports can be configured as more input ports to include more networksegments for monitoring.

Network administrators no longer need a separate tool for each network segment to achievesimultaneous 24x7 monitoring of multiple links, nor do they need to "switch" to a different segment tocollect data from it. A VS-1200-S series unit simultaneously collects data from multiple networksegments and aggregates all the data before sending it to the connected network tools, expandingnetwork visibility and reducing the number of tools needed on the network And, because the VS-1200-S series aggregates all the data before sending it to the connected network tool, you canalways view the entire conversation even in asymmetric routing, redundant, and load-balancedenvironments.

Aggregation gives a complete view of traffic. Instead of collecting and manually assembling trace orlog files from separate tools on separate network segments, the VS-1200-S lets security andanalysis tools collect the data in a single file. In security applications, events and false positives arerecorded fewer times. In all applications, data can be analyzed faster than ever, increasing uptimeand saving money.

The VERSAstream™ Data Access Switch VS-1200-S series is adaptable; all ports can beconfigured to be input or output ports. These switches adapt with your ever-changing network.

4 Initial Configuration

IMPORTANT: Prior to initial configuration of the hardware, it is imperative to review theentire Initial Configuration section before proceeding to the Installation section.

This section explains the considerations and requirements for the initial configuration of the VS-1200-S series by a Command Line Interface (CLI) with a management PC using a terminalemulation application connected either through the SERIAL DB9 port or though the MANAGEMENTRJ45 port. Only one configuration session can be open at a time.

4.1 Command Line Interface (CLI)

The Command Line Interface (CLI ) is used to:

set IP address (default 192.168.1.1), Subnet Mask (default 255.255.255.0) and Gateway(default 0.0.0.0)set port speed and duplexenables the user to select which ports or groups of ports receive the data stream copiesallows Any-to-Any ports to be configured as either inputs or outputs.

The VS-1200-S series factory default is off for all Any-to-Any ports.

4.1.1 Basic Functionality

Window Size Functionality: The CLI window is limited to 24 lines per screen and 80 charactersper line. If more data than can fit is presented, a “-more-” prompt is shown on the last line.

Character Handling: Printable character (ASCII code 32-126) and non-printable noted below:

Non-Printable Character Description<enter key> Executes command; places command in history buffer<backspace key> Erases previous character entry; removes history buffer entry

Connectivity/Authentication Functionality: Connectivity to the configurable product is madethrough the Management RJ45 or Serial DB9 port and authentication is required. This passwordprotection yields read-only access. To make configuration changes, Superuser (SU) mode must beaccessed with another password. See the 'Superuser Commands ' section for more information.

4.3.2 TELNET

Most network equipment and operating systems with a TCP/IP stack also support some kind ofTELNET service server for remote configuration. Security-related shortcomings have limitedTELNET (TErminaL NETwork) usage, although TELNET is still widely used when diagnosingproblems, manually "talking" to other services without specialized client software, and administrationof network elements such as integration and maintenance of core network elements.

IMPORTANT: For hostname, if initial IP Address HAS NOT BEEN configured, use 192.168.1.1(default) or if initial IP Address HAS BEEN configured, use the Local Area Network address settinginput during initial IP Address configuration.

TELNET using MANAGEMENT RJ45 - software configuration of the hardware

At the Windows command prompt enter:telnet

At the Microsoft Telnet> prompt enter:o nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn (open hostname) [i.e., o 192.168.1.1 or Local Area Network])

© 2011 Datacom Systems Inc

GOAL/SOLUTION: The exercise for the setup of a VS-1210BT/SFP-S shown is as follows:

Ports 1, 2, 3 and 4 have been setup as inputs.Port 5 has been setup to output data to a Network IDS from Port 4’s input. Port 6 has been setup to output aggregated data to a Probe from Port 3 and 4’s inputs.Port 7 has been setup to output data to a Network IDS from Port 1’s input and returns TCPresets from the Network IDS.Port 8 has been setup to output data to a Network IDS from Port 2’s input and returns TCPresets from the Network IDS.Port 9 has been setup to output aggregated data to a Network IDS from Port 1 and 2’s inputs/outputs and returns TCP resets from the Network IDS.Port 10 has been setup to output aggregated data to a Probe from Port 1, 2, 3, and 4’s inputs.

NOTE: Port 9’s Network IDS’s network interface card (NIC) can handle both sides of thenetwork conversation at once. Port 7 and 8’s Network IDS’s network interface cards cannothandle the whole conversation at once and must use two separate NICs for each side of theconversation. It can be setup either way to fit your network devices/tools’ requirements.

CONFIGURATION: For the connections to be properly set, use the syntax below in the CommandLine Interface (CLI) to setup Any-to-Any ports. As the IP address (default 192.168.1.1) is setduring the 'Initial Configuration' it is not covered in this section, see the 'IP Address ' section forthose steps. The connections in this exercise are setup in the CLI as shown below (syntax is shownwith either user > or Superuser # prompts):

For Initial Configuration, open HyperTerminal on your Management PC using the VS-1210BT/SFP SERIAL DB9 port. Settings are found in the 'Initial Configuration', 'SERIAL Port Configuration(DB9)', 'HyperTerminal ' section.

Press Enter key, Enter key, then enter your Username (default: Administrator), Enter key,Password (default: admin) and Enter key. Default prompt is the > symbol.

Then enter Superuser mode, at the user prompt >, enter SU, Enter key, and enter the Password(default: password) and Enter key. Default prompt is the # symbol.

In Superuser mode use the following syntax for the different connections. This syntax sets the input/output for Any-to-Any ports as well as the input/output for Tap ports.

The VS-1200-S Series factory default for all Any-to-Any ports is off.

Ensure there are no previous settings present, go through Ports 1-10 and set them to OFF asshown:

# SET PORT MONITOR 1 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 2 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 3 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 4 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 5 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 6 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 7 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 8 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 9 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 10 OFF

Now you can begin setting the Tap and Monitor ports as to which port inputs the data and whichports aggregate and/or output the data.

Port 1 is set as output for Ports 7 and 9’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 1 FROM 7,9

Port 2 is set as output for Ports 8 and 9’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 2 FROM 8,9

Port 5 is set as output for Port 4’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 5 FROM 4

Port 6 is set as output for Ports 3 and 4’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 6 FROM 3,4

Port 7 is set as output for Port 1’s input/output which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 7 FROM 1

Port 8 is set as output for Port 2’s input/output which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 8 FROM 2

Port 9 is set as output for Ports 1 and 2’s input/output which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 9 FROM 1,2

Port 10 is set as output for Ports 1, 2, 3, and 4’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 10 FROM 1,2,3, 4

As a quick check, show port routing interface matrix with this syntax: # SH PO RO Outputs 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 1001 ---------------------------------------X-----------X----X02 ----------------------------------------------X----X----X03 ---------------------------------X-----------------------X04 ---------------------------X----X-----------------------X05 ----------------------X-----------------------------------06 ----------------X----X-----------------------------------07 ---X------------------------------------------------------08 ---------X------------------------------------------------09 ---X----X------------------------------------------------10 ---X----X-----X----X------------------------------------#

This completes the exercise using the Command Line Interface for setting ports.

4.6.2 SSH

Secure Shell (SSH ) is a network protocol that uses public key cryptography that allows securenetwork services to be exchanged over an insecure network between two networked devices. SSHSecure Shell with its array of unmatched security features is an essential tool in today's networkenvironment. It is a powerful guardian against the numerous security hazards that nowadays threatennetwork communications.

Several different versions of the Secure Shell client and server exist. Please note that the differentversions may use different implementations of the SSH protocol, and therefore you may not be ableto connect to an SSH1 server using SSH2 client software, or vice versa.

Restrictions for Secure Shell Version 2 Support:Execution Shell and remote command execution are the only applications supported.Compression is not supported.

The following instructions illustrate a "typical" PuTTy SSH client configuration. This example wasprepared using PuTTy version 0.60. PuTTy.

Step 1. When you start PuTTy, you see the dialog box that allows you to control everything PuTTycan do. You don't need to change most of the configuration options. To start the simplest kind ofsession, all you need to do is to enter a few basic parameters.

Page 51: VS-1200-S Data Acccess Switch - Datacom Systems · 2021. 2. 26. · the prior written permission of Datacom Systems, Inc. To obtain this permission, write to the attention of the

Initial Configuration 47

© 2011 Datacom Systems Inc

Step 2. In the Host Name (or IP address) box, enter the host name or IP address of the SSHServer you want to connect to. Once you have filled in the Host Name (or IP address), Connectiontype: [default: SSH] and possibly Port [default: 22] settings, you are ready to connect.

Step 3. Press the Open button at the bottom of the dialog box, and PuTTy will begin trying toconnect you to the server. If you are using SSH to connect to the SSH Server for the first time, youwill probably see a message looking something like this:

The warning message above asks you whether you want to trust this host key or not. This is afeature of the SSH protocol, it is designed to protect against a network attack known as spoofingwhich redirects your connection to a different computer, so that you send your password to thewrong machine. To prevent this attack, each SSH Server has a unique identifying code, called a host key. So if you connect to a SSH Server and it sends you a different host key from the one youwere expecting, you will have the chance to abandon your connection before you type any privateinformation (such as a password) into it.

Page 52: VS-1200-S Data Acccess Switch - Datacom Systems · 2021. 2. 26. · the prior written permission of Datacom Systems, Inc. To obtain this permission, write to the attention of the

VS-1200-S Data Acccess Switch48

© 2011 Datacom Systems Inc

Whether or not to trust the host key is your choice. Connecting within a company network, youmight feel that all the network users are on the same side and spoofing attacks are unlikely, so youmight choose to trust the key without checking it. Connecting across a hostile network (such as theInternet) you should check with your system administrator.

Step 4. After you have connected, you will be asked to login as:, type Administrator (defaultvalue) and press the Enter key. At the Administrator@hostname (or IP address)'s password:prompt, type admin (default value) and press the Enter key to display the command line > prompt.To see a list of available commands, at the > command line prompt, type ? and press the Enter key .

Step 5. Type Exit and press the Enter key to end the connection session. Close PuTTy.

4.7 SNMP Configuration

IMPORTANT: SNMP MUST be enabled and there MUST be at least one SNMP user for theSNMP feature to work.

Once installation of the Link Aggregation Tap has been completed in your chosen network location,if at least one SNMP user has not been created, refer to the CLI Command Set to:

Step 1. SET SNMPv3 (SE V3) [ON].

Step 2. SET SNMPV3 SUPERUSER (SE V3 SU) name auth authPass priv privPass

Use your Network Management System to access the Link Aggregation Tap to perform GET, SET,TRAP, etc. SNMP functions.

The Appendix A - Agent Capabilities MIB , Appendix B - Power Supply MIB and AppendixC - Structure of Management MIB sections are for your reference.

RELEASE NOTES:

1. When adding a TRAP destination, any specified snmpTargetAddrTagList string must berestricted to alphanumeric characters (0-9, a-z, A-Z).

4.8 Small Form-Factor Plug Module

This section provides information about small form-factor plug (SFP) modules. The SFP modulesare input/output devices that plug into a Gigabit Ethernet (GE) small form-factor (SFF) port, linkingthe port with a 1000Base-X fiber or 1000Base-T copper network.

The fiber SFP module have a receiver port (Rx) and a transmitter port (Tx) that make up one opticalinterface.The 1000Base-SX (short wavelength) SFP module operates on standard multimode fibernetworks compliant with the 1000Base SX standard. The 1000Base-LX (long wavelength) SFPmodule operates on standard single-mode fiber networks compliant with the 1000Base LXstandard. The fiber SFP module is a 1000 Mbps optical interface in the form of an LC-type duplexport that supports interfaces compliant with the 1000Base-X standard.

The copper SFP module is compliant with the 1000Base-T standard and operates on standardCategory 5 wiring and has an RJ45 connector.

4.8.1 Intallation Prerequisites

This section describes safety and compliance guidelines you should observe before you install anSFP module in your VS-1200-S series unit.

NOTE: You can install and remove SFP modules with power on to the system; however, it isstrongly recommended that you do not install or remove the SFP module with fiber or copper cablesattached to it. Disconnect all cables before removing or installing a SFP module.

CAUTION: Prevent system problems, use only Datacom Systems Inc. supplied SFP modules.

4.8.2 Safety Guidelines

Before handling a SFP module, observe the following guidelines:

Copper and fiber SFP modules are static-sensitive. To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD)damage, follow your normal ESD handling procedures.Fiber SFP modules are dust-sensitive. When storing a SFP module or when a fiber cable is notplugged in, always keep plugs in the SFP module optical hole.The most common source of contaminants in the fiber SFP optical aperture is debris picked up onthe terminations of the optical connectors. Use an alcohol swab or lint-free absorbent wipes toclean the terminations of the optical connector.

WARNING: Fiber SFP modules are class 1 laser and LED products. Invisible laser radiationmay be emitted from the port opening when no fiber cable is connected, avoid exposure tolaser radiation and do not stare in open optical ports.

4.8.3 Installing the SFP Module

SFP modules might ship already installed in your VS-1200-S, or they might arrive packagedseparately. This section describes how to install the SFP module.

NOTE: You can install SFP modules with power on to the system; however, it is stronglyrecommended that you do not install the SFP module with fiber or copper cables attached to it.Disconnect all cables before installing a SFP module.

CAUTION: Prevent system problems, use only Datacom Systems Inc. supplied SFP modules.

Step 1. Turn the SFP module so the latch is towards the center of the Gigabit Ethernet Interfacesockets. The SFP module is keyed so that it cannot be inserted incorrectly.

Step 2. Insert the SFP module into the SFF port and repeat Step 1 and Step 2 inserting other SFPmodules until completed.

Step 3. Attach the appropriate network cable to the LC-type or RJ45-type connector on the SFPmodule. For fiber optic SFP modules you can use either simplex or duplex connectors. For simplexconnectors, two cables are required, one cable for transmit (Rx) and a second cable for receive(Rx). For duplex connectors, only one cable that has both Tx and Rx connectors is required.

4.8.4 Removing the SFP Module

SFP modules might ship already installed in your VS-1200-S, or they might arrive packagedseparately. This section describes how to remove the SFP module.

NOTE: You can remove SFP modules with power on to the system; however, it is stronglyrecommended that you do not remove the SFP module with fiber or copper cables attached to it.Disconnect all cables before removing a SFP module.

Step 1. Disconnect the network cable from the SFP module LC-type or RJ45-type connector.

Step 2. Release the SFP module from the GE SFF port by moving the swing latch away from thebody of the unit.

Step 3. Slide the SFP module out of the GE SFF port.

5 Hardware Installation

This section describes the VS-1200-S series hardware installation at the network site of yourchoice.

For specific VS-1200-S applications see the 'Application ' section.

5.1 Power

This section describes the power connection at the network installation site of the VS-1200-Sconfigurable series.

or

Two DC input power sockets are provided on the rear panel. The front panel POWER 1 and 2LEDs are illuminated green, respectively:

(BT series) - when DC power is available at both the two rear DC power sockets; or(SFP series) - when the DC POWER switch is depressed ON and DC power is available atboth the two rear DC power sockets.

Either POWER 1 or 2 LED not illuminated when powered, indicates a defective power source andimmediate investigation as to the cause is required to insure redundant power integrity.

1. Step 1. Using the supplied Power Adapters and AC Line Cords, plug the VS-1200-S series intodifferent circuit external power sources.Although only one power supply is required to power theconfigurable unit, use of a second independent power source is strongly recommended to assureuninterrupted monitoring. Furthermore, connecting the second Power Adapter to a differentexternal power source circuit than the first AC power source eliminates power as a single point offailure.

5.2 Any-to-Any Connection

This section will focus on the Any-to-Any port connection of the typical VS-1200-S series hardwareinstallation.

NOTE: For the VS-1200 series with a Gigabit Ethernet (GE) small form-factor (SFF) port, the SFPmodules might ship already installed in your unit, or they might arrive packaged separately. See the'Small Form-Factor Pluggable' section, 'Installing the SFP Module ,' on how to install the SFPmodule.

Step 2. Continue repeating Step 1. for any remaining Any-to-Any port socket you want connectedVS-1200-S series.

These port sockets have integrated LEDs that display line status and line speed of each port. Seethe Any-to-Any Port LED Display Code table for LED display codes.

5.3 Management Connection

This section shows the MANAGEMENT port 100 Mbs Full-Duplex connection of the typical VS-1200-S configurable series hardware installation.

Step 1. Connect a network cable to the MANAGEMENT port RJ45 socket. The MANAGEMENTport RJ45 left LED illuminates green when link has been established with the network. TheMANAGEMENT port right LED illuminates green when passing data.

The MANAGEMENT PORT is an RJ45 socket used for 100 Mbs full-duplex connection with astraight-through LAN cable via your management LAN to a Remote Management Console which isa standard PC using a Telnet terminal emulator software application.

Link indicates connection. The LED Display Code table deciphers the RJ45 jacks with integratedLEDs that display line status of the MANAGEMENT PORT.

7 Application

This section will present techniques and applications describing the practical use and new remediesfor performing network analysis requirements using VS-1200-S series solutions.

7.1 Gathering the Data (HyperTerminal configuration example)

PREMISE: This application consists of workgroup switches that allow end users to access a groupof servers. The servers are connected to a single server switch and the users are distributed acrossseveral workgroup switches. The security department wants to see all server bound access from theusers and server to server traffic.

GOAL: This application will use a VS-1210BT/SFP-S as follows:

1. TAP access to critical server2. Aggregate SPAN.3. Provide access for analysis, security and recording devices.

The first goal requires an external tap between the server switch and the critical financial server. Thetap copies all the data going to the financial server, and can't be shutdown like a SPAN port. Thetap allows enhanced visibility for security purposes.

The second goal requires that a SPAN port is configured on the workgoup switches. This will onlyallow workgroup traffic to be replicated out the SPAN port.

The third goal involves aggregating and replicating traffic from the two previous goals for specificsecurity and network analysis to be done.

VS-1200-S Data Acccess Switch56

© 2011 Datacom Systems Inc

SOLUTION: The VS-1210BT/SFP-S solves all goals by accepting the input from the two SPANports along with the output from the TAP, aggregating and replicating the traffic to multiple ports andports 9 and 10 provide small form pluggables that allow either fiber or copper connectivity.

CONFIGURATION: The IP address (default 192.168.1.1), Subnet Mask and Default Gateway is setduring the 'Initial Configuration' for your Local Area Network settings and will not be covered in thissection, see the 'IP Address Configuration with HyperTerminal ' section for those steps. Use thesyntax below in the Command Line Interface (CLI) to setup Tap and Any-to-Any ports (syntax isshown with either user > or Superuser # prompts):

For configuration, open HyperTerminal on your Management PC using the VS-1210BT/SFP-S SERIAL DB9 port. Settings are found in the 'Initial Configuration', 'SERIAL Port Configuration(DB9)', 'HyperTerminal ' section.

Press twice Enter key and Enter key. Enter Username (default: Administrator) and Enter key.Enter Password (default: admin) and Enter key. Default prompt is the > symbol. Enter superusermode, type su and Enter key. Enter Password (default: password) and Enter key. Default promptis the # symbol. Use the following syntax to set the input/output for Any-to-Any ports as well as theoutput for Tap ports.

The VS-1200-S Series factory default for all Any-to-Any ports is off.

Ensure there are no previous settings present, go through Ports 1-10 and set them to OFF as shown:

# SET PORT MONITOR 1 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 2 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 3 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 4 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 5 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 6 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 7 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 8 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 9 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 10 OFF

Now you can begin setting the ports as to which port inputs the data and which ports aggregate and/or output the data.

Port 4 is set as output for Port 1’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 4 FROM 1

Port 5 is set as output for Port 1’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 5 FROM 1

Port 6 is set as output for Port 2’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 6 FROM 2

Port 7 is set as output for Port 2’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 7 FROM 2

Port 8 is set as output for Port 3’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 8 FROM 3

Port 9 is set as output for Port 3’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 9 FROM 3

Port 10 is set as output for Ports 1, 2, and 3’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 10 FROM 1,2,3

CONCLUSION: The VS-1210BT/SFP-S provides the ability to aggregate data streams from TAPsand from SPAN or Port Mirrors. Aggregating streams together improves overall visibility for thetools and permits specific departmental devices to only see the traffic they need. The VS-1210BT/SFP-S allows many devices to share a single SPAN output. The VS-1210BT/SFP-S Small FormPluggable capacity, allows users to send data across multimode or single-mode fiber.

7.2 All Pluggable in Optical Network (TELNET configurationexample)

PREMISE: This network application consists of several workgroup optical switches that allow endusers to access a group of servers.; The servers are all connected to a single server optical switchand the users are distributed across several workgroup switches. The security department wants toview all server bound access from the users and view server to server traffic.

GOAL: This application will use a VS-1210SFP-S as follows:

1. Fiber TAP access to optical networks2. Aggregate traffic to provide access for analysis, security and recording devices.

The first goal requires an external fiber taps between the optical network devices. The tap makes acopy of all the data going to the financial server, and can not be shutdown like a SPAN port. Thetap will allow enhanced visibility for security purposes.

The second goal involves aggregating and replicating traffic from the previous goal for specificsecurity and network analysis to be done.

© 2011 Datacom Systems Inc

SOLUTION: The VS-1210SFP-S solves the goals by accepting both sides of each optical networktraffic from four optical tap full-duplex ports and aggregating and replicating the traffic to multipleports. The VS-1210SFP-S also provides media conversion with the small form pluggables so thatboth copper and fiber ports are available for connectivity.

CONFIGURATION: The IP address (default 192.168.1.1), Subnet Mask and Default Gateway is setduring the 'Initial Configuration' for your Local Area Network settings and will not be covered in thissection, see the 'IP Address Configuration with TELNET ' section for those steps. Use the syntaxbelow in the Command Line Interface (CLI) to setup Tap and Any-to-Any ports (syntax is shownwith either user > or Superuser # prompts):For Configuration, open TELNET on your Management PC and open a hostname connection withthe VS-1210SFP-S MANAGEMENT RJ45 port. Settings are found in the 'Initial Configuration','MANAGEMENT Port Configuration (RJ45)', 'TELNET ' section.

Enter Username (default: Administrator) and Enter key. Enter Password (default: admin) and Enterkey. Default prompt is the > symbol. Enter superuser mode, type su and Enter key. EnterPassword (default: password) and Enter key. Default prompt is the # symbol. Use the followingsyntax to set the input/output for Any-to-Any ports as well as the output for Tap ports.

The VS-1200-S Series factory default for all Any-to-Any ports is off.

Ensure there are no previous settings present, go through Ports 1-10 and set them to OFF as shown:

# SET PORT MONITOR 1 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 2 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 3 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 4 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 5 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 6 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 7 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 8 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 9 OFF# SET PORT MONITOR 10 OFF

IMPORTANT: Fiber taps are not capable and CAN NOT auto-negotiate link with the VS-1210SFP-S ports and MUST BE be hard set to 1,000 Mbs and full-duplex.

Port 1, 2, 3, and 4's is set to 1,000 Mbs and full-duplex with this syntax:# SET PORT SPEED 1,2,3,4 1000FULL

Now you can begin setting the ports as to which port inputs the data and which portsaggregate and/or output the data.

Port 5 is set as output for Port 1 and 3’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 5 FROM 1,3

Port 6 is set as output for Port 1 and 3’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 6 FROM 1,3

Port 7 is set as output for Port 2 and 4’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 7 FROM 2,4

Port 8 is set as output for Port 2 and 4’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 8 FROM 2,4

Port 9 is set as output for Port 1, 2, 3 and 4’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 9 FROM 1,2,3,4

Port 10 is set as output for Ports 4’s input which is set with this syntax:# SET PORT MONITOR 10 FROM 4

CONCLUSION: The VS-1210BT/SFP-S provides the ability to aggregate data streams from TAPs.Aggregating streams together improves overall visibility for the tools and permits specificdepartmental devices to only see the traffic they need. The VS-1210SFP-S allows many devices toshare a single output. The VS-1210SFP-S Small Form Pluggable capacity, allows users to senddata across multimode, single-mode fiber or copper.

1. Introduction

This memo defines a set of agent identities used to identify Datacom SNMP agents and a set of agent capabilities used to convey the capabilities of Datacom SNMP Agents.

2. The Internet-Standard SNMP Management Framework

For a detailed overview of the documents that describe the current Internet-Standard Management Framework, please refer to section 7 of RFC 3410 [RFC3410].

Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed the Management Information Base or MIB. MIB objects are generally accessed through the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

Objects in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined in the Structure of Management Information (SMI). This memo specifies a MIB module that is compliant to the SMIv2, which is described in STD 58, RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580 [RFC2580].

3. Conventions

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].

4. Overview of the Datacom Agent Capabilities MIB Module

This MIB module contains OBJECT-IDENTITY definitions used to identify Datacom SNMP agents and contains AGENT-CAPABILITIES statements used to express the capabilities of Datacom SNMP agents.

Each set of definitions is described in the following sections.

4.1 Agent Identities

The identity of a Datacom SNMP agent is exposed as the value of the sysObjectID object. For additional information about the definition of sysObject, see the SNMPv2-MIB [RFC 3418].

Datacom agent identities are defined within the Datacom agentIdents subtree.

Page 69: VS-1200-S Data Acccess Switch - Datacom Systems · 2021. 2. 26. · the prior written permission of Datacom Systems, Inc. To obtain this permission, write to the attention of the

Appendix A - Agent Capabilities MIB 65

© 2011 Datacom Systems Inc

Examples of sysObjectID values retrieved from a Datacom SNMP agent by a management application include the following:

sysObjectID.0 = agentIdCopperConfigurables218 sysObjectID.0 = agentIdAllPluggables227

4.2 AGENT-CAPABILITIES statements

The capabilities of a Datacom SNMP agent are exposed as a set of values in the sysORTable. For additional information about the object definitions comprising the sysORTable, see the SNMPv2-MIB [RFC 3418].

Datacom agent capabilities are defined within the Datacom agentCaps subtree.

Refer to section 6, "Mapping of the AGENT-CAPABILITIES macro" in RFC 2580, "Conformance Statements for SMIv2" [RFC2580] for further information on the use of agent capabilities statements by management application and SNMP agents.

An example of values exposed in the sysORTable follows:

sysORID.1 = dcomCapsSNMPv3Base sysORDescr.1 = "supports SNMPv3" sysORUpTime.1 = 54

sysORID.2 = dcomCapsAres1dot0dot0 sysORDescr.2 = "supports Datacom ARES version 1.0.0" sysORUpTime.1 = 55

This section discusses the syntax types defined in the 'Structure of Management InformationVersion 2 (SMIv2)' [RFC2578] and used in this MIB module.

4.1.1.1 Unsigned32

There is one object defined in this MIB module using the SMIv2 Unsigned32 syntax type.

Page 77: VS-1200-S Data Acccess Switch - Datacom Systems · 2021. 2. 26. · the prior written permission of Datacom Systems, Inc. To obtain this permission, write to the attention of the

Appendix B - Power Supply MIB 73

© 2011 Datacom Systems Inc

An instance of an object definition using the Unsigned32 syntax type can represent an integervalue between 0 and 2^32-1 inclusive (0 to 4,294,967,295 decimal).

The object definition using the Unsigned32 syntax type follows:

in the dcomPowerSupplyStatusTable - dcomPowerSupplyIndex

The dcomPowerSupplyIndex object defines the SNMP index component associated with apower supply.

4.1.1.2 INTEGER

There is one object defined in this MIB module using the SMIv2 INTEGER syntax type.

An instance of an object definition using the INTEGER syntax type is used to represent an integervalue as a named-number enumeration. Only named-numbers defined in the enumeration may bepresent as a value.

The object definition using the INTEGER syntax type follows:

in the dcomPowerSupplyStatusTable - dcomPowerSupplyStatus

The dcomPowerSupplyStatus object defines the current state of a power supply. The named-number enumerated values are as follow:

stateUnknown(1) - the current state is 'unknown' stateDown(2) - the current state is 'down' stateUp(3) - the current state is 'up'

4.2 SNMPv2-TC Textual Conventions

This section discusses Textual Conventions defined in the SNMPv2-TC [RFC2579] and used inthis MIB module.

4.2.1 TimeStamp

There is one object defined in this MIB module using the SMIv2 TimeStamp TC.

An object using the SMIv2 TimeStamp TC exposes a notion of local time relative to a local timesource. In the SNMP, the sysUpTime [RFC3418] object provides this local time source.

The value of an instance of an object using the TimeStamp TC changes when a specific eventoccurs, as described in its description clause.

The SNMP managed objects using a TimeStamp TC follow:

in the dcomPowerSupplyStatusTable - dcomPowerSupplyLastChange

A change in the value of a dcomPowerSupplyLastChange instance indicates the time at which apower supply transitioned into its current state.

A value of zero(0) indicates that a power supply was already in its current state when theSNMP agent last re-initialized.

4.3 Relationship to Other MIB Modules

This section discusses the relationship of this MIB module to MIB modules published by theInternet Engineering Task Force (IETF).

4.3.1 ENTITY-MIB and ENTITY-STATE-MIB

The ENTITY-MIB and ENTITY-STATE-MIB are designed to expose managementinformation about the full inventory of components associated with a managed system. Thesecomponents include power supplies.

In contrast, this MIB module addresses the specific requirement for exposing managementinformation about just the power supplies associated with Datacom products. Other than powersupplies, no management information is exposed for components comprising Datacom products.

An SNMP agent that implements both the ENTITY-MIB and the ENTITY-STATE-MIB iscapable of exposing the same management information about power supplies as exposed by thisMIB module.

However, within the Internet community, the usual expectations for an implementation of theENTITY-MIB and ENTITY-STATE-MIB is for fully populated tables containing managementinformation about the complete inventory of components associated with a managed system.

Thus, this MIB module is used to expose management information relevant to power suppliesassociated with Datacom products.

Note, that the use of this MIB module does not preclude the potential for future use of theENTITY-MIB and ENTITY-STATE-MIB for Datacom products.

4.4 Organization of This MIB Module

This MIB module organizes its object definitions into one conceptual table. This table isdiscussed in the following section.

There are also two notification definitions contained in this MIB module. These notifications arediscussed in a subsequent section.

4.4.1 The dcomPowerSupplyStatusTable

This table contains object definitions providing essential statistics for power supplies associatedwith the managed system.

An entry exists in this table for each power supply associated with the managed system.

A unique value for the dcomPowerSupplyIndex object identifies each power supply.

The value of the dcomPowerSupplyStatus object indicates the current state of a power supply.A value of 'stateDown(2)' indicates the power suppply is not operating or is not plugged in. Avalue of 'stateUp(3)' indicates the power supply is operating as intended.

A dcomPowerSupplyStatus value of 'stateUnknown(1)' indicates the current state of the power

Page 79: VS-1200-S Data Acccess Switch - Datacom Systems · 2021. 2. 26. · the prior written permission of Datacom Systems, Inc. To obtain this permission, write to the attention of the

Appendix B - Power Supply MIB 75

© 2011 Datacom Systems Inc

supply is unknown. This value is defined for architectural purposes and is unlikely to beobserved in deployed systems.

The value of the dcomPowerSupplyLastChange object provides a TimeStamp indication ofwhen a power supply entered its current state. The special value of zero(0) indicates a powersupply was already in its current state when the SNMP agent last re-initialized.

4.4.2 Event Notifications

This MIB module defines two event notifications for reporting state transitions associated withpower supplies. These notifications are discussed in the following sections.

4.4.2.1 dcomPowerSupplyEventUp

A dcomPowerSupplyEventUp event notification provides an indication that a power supply hastransitioned into the 'up' state.

The power supply involved in this event is identified by the dcomPowerSupplyIndex valueappended to the object name of the dcomPowerSupplyStatus variable binding.

4.4.2.2 dcomPowerSupplyEventDown

A dcomPowerSupplyEventUp event notification provides an indication that a power supply hastransitioned into the 'down' state.

The power supply involved in this event is identified by the dcomPowerSupplyIndex valueappended to the object name of the dcomPowerSupplyStatus variable binding.

4.5 Notes for Management Applications

- when the SNMP agent re-initializes, subsequent to receiving the coldStart event notification, amanagement application will receive a dcomPowerSupplyEventDown event notification for anypower supply currently in the 'down' state.

- when a dcomPowerSupplyEventDown event notification is received, a managementapplication SHOULD determine why the power supply is not functioning. If it is determined thatthe power supply has failed, then make arrangements to order and install an appropriateDatacom replacement unit for the failed power supply. If it is determined that the power supplyis unplugged or otherwise disconnected from its electrical source, then make arrangements to re-plug and reconnect the power supply.

- when a dcomPowerSupplyEventUp event notification is received, a management applicationSHOULD determine which previously received dcomPowerSupplyEventDown event thisdcomPowerSupplyEventUp event notification resolves.

7. Security Considerations

There are no management objects defined in this MIB module that have a MAX-ACCESSclause of read-write and/or read-create. So, if this MIB module is implemented correctly, thenthere is no risk that an intruder can alter or create any management objects of this MIB modulevia direct SNMP SET operations.

None of the readable objects in this MIB module (i.e., objects with a MAX-ACCESS otherthan not-accessible) are considered sensitive or vulnerable within network environments.

SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 did not include adequate security. Even if the network itself is

Page 86: VS-1200-S Data Acccess Switch - Datacom Systems · 2021. 2. 26. · the prior written permission of Datacom Systems, Inc. To obtain this permission, write to the attention of the

secure (for example by using IPsec), even then, there is no control as to who on the securenetwork is allowed to access and GET/SET (read/change/create/delete) the objects in this MIBmodule.

It is RECOMMENDED that implementers consider the security features as provided by theSNMPv3 framework (see [RFC3410], section 8), including full support for the SNMPv3cryptographic mechanisms (for authentication and privacy).

Further, deployment of SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 is NOT RECOMMENDED.Instead, it is RECOMMENDED to deploy SNMPv3 and to enable cryptographic security. It isthen a customer/operator responsibility to ensure that the SNMP entity giving access to aninstance of this MIB module is properly configured to give access to the objects only to thoseprincipals (users) that have legitimate rights to indeed GET or SET (change/create/delete) them.

1. Introduction

This memo defines the top level structure of management information and administrative registrations within the Datacom private enterprise namespace.

2. The Internet-Standard SNMP Management Framework

For a detailed overview of the documents that describe the current Internet-Standard Management Framework, please refer to section 7 of RFC 3410 [RFC3410].

Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed the Management Information Base or MIB. MIB objects are generally accessed through the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

Objects in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined in the Structure of Management Information (SMI). This memo specifies a MIB module that is compliant to the SMIv2, which is described in STD 58, RFC 2578 [RFC2578], STD 58, RFC 2579 [RFC2579] and STD 58, RFC 2580 [RFC2580].

3. Conventions

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].

4. The Datacom Structure of Management Information

Datacom enterprise MIB modules are consistent with and extend as appropriate, management objects defined within IETF standards track MIB modules.

The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) has assigned Datacom the private enterprise number 9762. An up-to-date list of private enterprise number assignments is maintained by IANA at http://www.iana.org/assignments/enterprise-numbers.

The organization of the datacom(9762) subtree follows:

agentIdents(1) The agentIdents subtree provides an area for OBJECT-IDENTITY definitions used for the identification of Datacom SNMP

agents.

Definitions occur within the DATACOM-AGENT-CAPS MIB module.

agentCaps(2) The agentCaps subtree provides an area AGENT-CAPABILITIES statements used to indicate the capabilities of Datacom SNMP agents.

Definitions occur within the DATACOM-AGENT-CAPS MIB module.

datacomMibs(3) The datacomMibs subtree provides an area for MODULE-IDENTITY definitions with Datacom MIB modules.

MODULE-IDENTITY, OBJECT-TYPE, NOTIFICATION-TYPE, MODULE-COMPLIANCE, OBJECT-GROUP and NOTIFICATION-GROUP definitions occur within the respective Datacom MIB module.

Additions and deprecations to assignments within the top level of the Datacom private enterprise name space may occur from time to time as documented in revisions to this memo.
